Gravity Dampers Hvac

Gravity dampers are an important component of a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system. They are designed to regulate the flow of air through the system, preventing it from becoming too hot or too cold. Gravity dampers are also known as “flow dampers” or “air dampers” and they work by using gravity to move the air in the desired direction. The dampers are usually made of metal and are attached to the ducts in the HVAC system. When the air temperature changes, the gravity damper will open or close, allowing the desired amount of air to flow through the system. Gravity dampers are important because they help maintain the temperature in the building, as well as providing energy efficiency. They also help reduce noise from the HVAC system, making it more comfortable for the occupants. Gravity dampers are an essential part of any HVAC system and should be regularly checked and maintained to ensure they are working properly.
